Careful with that chainsaw (Eugene?)! I'd be wary of using one. Our chicken coop was the old playhouse my kids grew out of. It has served us well for years. It seems foxes are active around here as a neighbour just lost some chickens. I hope our fencing will keep them out.

No kidding with those gears, I am still not conformable with it, though after months of using it for fire wood, it's crazy how we get used to anything. I am still very careful though haha thanks.
I might do the opposite and lets the kids play in the children coop. One question, did you replace your hens once they laid less eggs?
I will share a part 2 but we went with oak planks almost up to the top and then chicken fence to also prevent small birds to get through and steal the chicken's food.
We let the chickens live out their lives as they are partly pets. It's not about the economics really. We have had to add some small mesh netting as their is bird flu in the UK and you are supposed to keep wild birds out, but they used to get in before. We also have a rat problem at the moment. They are digging everywhere in the run and probably getting some of the food.

Just finished setting up the very rigid (also small netting ) chicken fence, and tied it all up to prevent potential rats. The small birds do steal food around here as well.
I understand why you keep them as pets.
